Recipe

Ingredients:

1 cup buttermilk

4 tbsp double cream

1 vanilla pod (or 1/2 tsp vanilla essence)

2 eggs

2 tbsp honey

Directions:

Put the vanilla pod (if using) and buttermilk in a pan over low heat until it is almost boiling, then if using the vanilla pod remove it from the buttermilk.

In a bowl over a pan of hot water whisk the eggs until thick and pale colored. Pour in the warm buttermilk slowly while whisking hard. Continue to whisk over the pan of hot water until the mixture thickens slightly.

Whisk the honey (and the vanilla essence if using) into the mixture. Then place the mixture into a freezer safe container and freeze until firm.

When the mixture is ready you can eat as is or add fruit/nuts. You can also place it in a pan for a desired shape.
